Some believe it’s the first time he has shaved off all his hair as well as his characteristic toothbrush moustache.

Images posted on social media have drawn some comments from Zimbabweans.

Some have said that the hairdo makes him look younger.

But others are wondering what the fuss is about.

Perhaps sporting a new cut is a growing trend amongst heads of state. Democratic Republic of Congo President Joseph Kabila also showed off a new bushier style when he addressed MPs last week.
